SIO protest

Opposing the celebrations of Valentine’s Day, activists of the Students Islamic Organisation of India (SIO) on Wednesday took out a silent rally in the city and staged a demonstration in front of the Sub-Collector’s office.

Wearing black-coloured dresses and holding placards with slogans against the ‘imported culture’, the activists launched the rally at Chennupati petrol bunk and proceeded through Mahatma Gandhi Road. Representatives of the organisation submitted a memorandum to Vijayawada Sub-Collector Gaurav Uppal urging him to stop the celebrations in the city.

City president of the SIO Mohammed Khaleelullah called upon students not to allow foreign culture into India.
